Alpinestars Clothing

After getting my feet soaked for 3 days on a short French tour I needed to upgrade my footwear. I tried on plenty but these were hands down the best fit and still give plenty of brake and gear feel. I've been out a couple of times in wet conditions and so far they have kept mt feet warm and dry. They look pretty good too!

I've started doing some green laning and have been wearing my mountain biking knee pads. However, the pads get pretty uncomfortable after a couple of hours so I wanted to find some tough all season trousers with good built in knee protection and came across these in the Harlow store. Better than average knee protection, tough, comfortable and a removable inner lining to above the knee area. I went for a size up as per other reviews. Absolutely love them!!!

And of course excellent trouble free service from sports bike shop, ordered 1st pair from another brand on Wednesday that didn’t fit, returned and refunded, ordered these on Sunday, and arrived on Monday, ready for big ride on tuesday.

Great choice for most riding, even during the hotter months. Comfortable, once they've been worn for a short while. The link between the two outer fingers is great and all the protection is in the right places, assuming you choose the correct size.
I found they where slightly undersized. Usually I wear a Large, but the XL seemed a better fit both in width and length.

Flexible, grippy sole.not clumpy, and easy to walk in off the bike.

I’ve bought these boots many times before. I use them all through the winter for motorcycle training. If looked after, they are extremely waterproof. They’re also comfortable and warm.

The only downside is that the stitching comes undone after a year or so. Motorcycle clothing is not designed though, for the heavy wear Motorcycle Instructors put this kit through (I spend a lot of time on my feet).
